NFL DFS Projections Today
Projections updated August 12, 2026 at 9:02 AM EDT
The 2026 NFL season opens September 9. Until then there's no live slate to project, so this page ranks skill-position players by how they actually scored in 2025 — real production for DraftKings and FanDuel, not a guess. Once Week 1 locks, this same page switches to live weekly projections for the current slate.
Reading the table
Ranked by 2025 season FanDuel points, with the DraftKings total shown alongside it. Because the two sites score receptions and some bonuses differently, a player can rank higher on one column than the other. Click a name for that player's full fantasy trends page — rolling last-3, last-5, and last-10 splits, plus the season line shown here.

Frequently asked questions
Why does this show 2025 stats instead of this week's projections?
The 2026 season opens September 9. Until game weeks start, there is no live slate to project, so this page shows how skill-position players actually finished the 2025 season by fantasy points — real production, not a guess dressed up as one.
Will this page switch to weekly projections once the season starts?
Yes. Same URL, same table shape, different data source once Week 1 locks. Bookmark this page now and it will carry over.
Where do the fantasy points come from?
The same 2025 season data behind every NFL player's fantasy trends page — actual game logs, not a projection model.
Does this cover both DraftKings and FanDuel scoring?
Yes, side by side. DraftKings and FanDuel score receptions and some bonuses differently, so a player's rank can shift between the two columns.
Can I build a lineup from this list?
Once the season opens, yes — the lineup builder below uses live weekly salaries and projections and fills a full roster inside the cap. Off-season, it's ready for you to explore its rules ahead of Week 1.
